Watching Seals and Releasing Burdens

Some mornings hit differently. You wake up, and something inside you just clicks. That was me today. I had spent the morning deep in conversation—with my spirit guides, with my parents, and honestly, with myself. Tears flowed. Truths surfaced. And when it all settled, I realized I had uncovered something profound: I have always been the workhorse, the one who carries the weight, the burdens, the expectations. But what if I simply… stopped?

I took a drive to Hillsboro Bridge, my dog riding along with me. The wind was strong, the seals were out, and the raw beauty of it all mirrored the shift happening inside me. This wasn’t just a scenic detour; it was an integration of the realization I had that morning. As I sat there watching the waves, I knew—on a cellular level—that I was done carrying burdens that weren’t mine. I was done creating weight where none was needed.

For so long, my subconscious identity was tied to being the strong one, the one who can handle anything. That belief manifested in so many ways, even in my relationship with food and my body. I had figured out my digestion type through Human Design—indirect digestion, eating at night, fasting during the day. Logically, it was working. But something still felt… off. I wasn’t seeing the changes I expected, and it dawned on me: my body wasn’t holding onto weight because of food. It was holding onto weight because of my deeply ingrained belief that I must carry something heavy at all times.

So I made a decision. Right there in the car, wind whipping around me, I spoke it into existence: I am done. I am not a beast of burden. My role here is not to suffer under the weight of obligation. My purpose is to create, to bring light, to share my gifts freely—without unnecessary heaviness dragging me down. And I will do exactly that.

If you’re feeling weighed down—whether by expectations, emotions, or self-imposed burdens—I invite you to ask yourself: What am I carrying that I no longer need? And when you’re ready, step outside. Breathe in the air. Let something go. Because trust me, the lightness that follows is worth it.
